Feeling terribly wronged and unfairly treated, her tears started to flow as though they had finally found an outlet.
She reached out to take his hand. As she opened her mouth to speak, sobbing and choking with emotions, Shen Zihao suddenly asked her, “Whose child was this?”
All at once, her emotions and words got stuck in her throat.
She stared at Shen Zihao in disbelief, never imagining that he would actually say such a thing.
In complete shock, she tightened her fists and bit her lip.
She held back all her emotions and feelings of injustice, all the things that she had wanted to say to him.
She looked at him and, after a pause, asked him, “Zihao, you do not believe me?”
Shen Zihao frowned and said, “I’m a little confused now. Nuannuan, I do believe you, but they said you and he-”
He did not say the rest aloud.
But that expression on his face… Xia Nuannuan’s heart sank as she felt every last hope she had slip away.
She bit her lip and said unhurriedly, “Zihao, you have to believe me. There is nothing going on between him and I. It’s not what you think, Zihao—”
Before she could finish speaking, the ward door was thrown open.
Liu Haiyang charged in and walked right up to Shen Zihao. “If there’s a problem, take it up with me! It has nothing to do with Nuannuan.”
He glared at Shen Zihao and continued after a pause, “How much suffering has she gone through because of your relations.h.i.+p? Do you even know how sad she feels?”
“You have no idea! You have always been selfish and you’ve never cared about how others feel!”
“All you care about is that father and step-mother of yours! What do you take Nuannuan for?”
“A way of bearing you children?”
“The only thing you can give her is sorrow!”
“Shen Zihao, Nuannuan said a long time ago that you’re just a child who never grew up. She is tired of being with you!”
“Consider this my plea. What do we have to do so that you’ll let us be? The two of us just want to be together happily.”
Shen Zihao stood rooted to the ground as he heard all of this.
A child who never grew up.
Selfish, he never cared about how others felt.
So that was it. That was what Nuannuan actually thought of him?
A surge of emotions welled up inside him.
Clenching his fists tightly, he turned towards Xia Nuannuan.
Xia Nuannuan was in such a panic that she was almost getting out of bed. “Liu Haiyang, what nonsense are you speaking? I did not- It wasn’t me! Zihao, you have to believe me. There is really nothing going on between this man and I.”
She was on the verge of tears.
But right at this point, Dad Xia marched in. He stared at Shen Zihao icily. “Liu Haiyang was right about one thing. What have you given Nuannuan? Where were you at the time she needed you most?!”
Shen Zihao was stunned by these questions.
He stood there in a daze, not able to speak a word.
He looked at the people in front of him and suddenly, he felt guilty.
At once, he spun around and said, “I- I’ll come and visit Nuannuan another day!”
Then, without saying anything else, he ran out.
He wandered around in the streets for a long time. By the time he finally got home, it was late at night.
As he entered the house, he realized that Mei Feng was still awake.
When she saw him come in, she immediately extended her arm, holding out a copy of a doc.u.ment to him. “The Xia family has returned this.”
He looked at the papers and realized that it was the divorce agreement.
The s.p.a.ce for the female party’s signature, it was written: Xia Nuannuan.
Shen Zihao’s pupils shrank back immediately. This… was impossible.
